toyo slicks

[tazracing]

does any body run toyo slicks / if so do you like them ?

Yup- just bought some not that long ago. I run 15/28.5/9.5's. The reason is that i could not turn down their indrotuctory deal!!! buy one, get one free. I bought the front runners too. They seem to hook very well (compared to my M/T's that were pretty worn). I have em' on a non-tubbed 69 Camaro... little effort to get them sticky. Good luck!!

I bought mine last summer during the first promotion. 16x33x15's and 4.5 x26x15's. So I got two full sets for about 800 bucks. everyone I know that runs them has had good results. :)

CALL YOUR LOCAL TOYO TIRE DEALER AND HAVE THEM ASK THE DISTRIBUTOR IF THE DEAL IS STILL GOING.

There is a dealer locator on this website, not sure if they still offer the 2 for one or not. The first promotion expired in July of 2007.

I got mine in Oregon @ "Les Schawb" tire company here which is a chain in the NW. I paid 385.00 mounted w/ ft runners!! (we have no sales tax here) either. I was going to buy M/T, but the tire dude showed me a fax from Toyo & the promotion... could not pass it up!

It seems the several I have seen use these Toyos are hit and miss how well they work. IMO I will stick with Hoosiers or Goodyears they are proven.

I think you'll find that no matter what slick you choose, every car will work differently with different slicks. I'd say if Bayer can win Div. 7 S/C championship running them and several national event wins that should be proof enough if they work or not. They do have a stiffer side wall and some setups don't work well with that. Just my $.02 :)

Les Shwab in Utah is where I got mine.

I w/ you Blittle... mine are sticky quick & hook well. They are only 1/2" different in height & work as well as the M/T's prior on the same car. I am no expert on slicks, but I can at least say they handle my car/power very well. Got them at Les Schwab too...

[tazracing]

PUT THE TOYOS ON AND I LIKE THEM !!!!!!!
